This is “Jazz”. I just hand delivered it to a young collector couple who purchased one of my expressive bear camper paintings a few weeks ago. One of them is a drummer and commissioned me to do a painting of a classic jazz drum kit. Having been a drummer for 25 years, ironically I have never done a painting of a drum kit. I drew various drum kits here and there on notebook paper in middle school and high school, but never a painting in my adult/professional life. I was so excited to be asked to do this commission. The young couple was overjoyed with the final painting as was I. I almost didn’t want to let it go! Sorry, no animal in this painting 🙂

Antlers and Flowers

Tattoo Design Commission animal art Will Eskridge
/ / ,

My friend, art collector and writer Jordan Rothacker commissioned me to do a piece for a new tattoo he is getting on his arm. Jordan had the idea of wanting just deer antlers with flowers intermingled. We met at local favorite Old Pal, had a beer and discussed antlers and flowers. I sketched each flower and the antlers in graphite individually. I then scanned the images and put the final design together in Photoshop. This was to allow for any adjustments that Jordan would want. Once he okayed the final design, I then transferred it back to some nice Arches hot-pressed paper (my favorite) and colored it with gouache. I just finished it and I think it’s going to look pretty sick as a tattoo. I can’t wait to see it inked in!

NOVEMBER 2013

Hallo meine Freunde und Familie! You’ll notice some changes to this month’s newsletter. I’ve decided to change some things around a bit to hopefully keep you all interested and not overwhelmed with info. I’ve dropped the sections and decided to keep the newsletter focused on a single subject or piece of artwork. I’ll still be doing specials from time to time and will notify everyone accordingly.

So this latest piece is a special commission for a friend of mind who has been collecting my work for a little over a year now. This friend/collector particularly likes my wildlife subjects and commissioned me to do a painting of a bull. It was a great challenge as I haven’t painted a bull before. I enjoyed painting at this large size as it allowed for broader brush marks and adds to the boldness of the head-on image of the bull.

Okay I think that’s it for this issue. I hope everyone has a fun and safe Thanksgiving!

Until the next 30 moons…
